Gringo,
In those cases, that person has the right to die, if that was their coice, or if a close loved, husband/wife, knows that's what the person wanted or believes that will be the best choice rather than having the person suffer in a state of vegetation or extreme pain.
If a close relative had cerebial hemhoraging, and the chance of recovery was slim, or recovery would mean a state of vegetation. Yes, I would consider option for euthanasia, for the sake of that person.
You are 100% correct, saying that Human Life should be respected, and there is a slippery slope. But many times family and friends hold on, not for the one who is suffering, but for their own reasons and because they do not want to let go. |
